Vibration Reduction (VRII)

Vibration reduction (VRII) reduces blur caused by camera shake, allowing shutter speeds up to four stops slower than would otherwise be the case (Nikon measurements; effects vary with the photographer and shooting conditions). This increases the range of shutter speeds available and permits hand-held, tripod-free photography in a wide range of situations.

Using the Vibration Reduction ON/OFF Switch

Select ON to enable vibration reduction. Vibration reduction is activated when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, reducing the effects of camera shake for improved framing and focus.

Select OFF to turn vibration reduction off.

Using Vibration Reduction: Notes

When using vibration reduction, press the shutter-release button halfway and wait for the image in the viewfinder to stabilize before pressing the shutter-release button the rest of the way down.

When the camera is panned, vibration reduction applies only to motion that is not part of the pan (if the camera is panned horizontally, for example, vibration reduction will be applied only to vertical shake), making it much easier to pan the camera smoothly in a wide arc.

When vibration reduction is active, the image in the viewfinder may be blurred after the shutter is released. This does not indicate a malfunction.
